The plot is not rigorous

After reading half of it, I can't stand it anymore, I always feel that it is not rigorous enough. I usually like legal dramas very much, but I don't quite understand the purely legal issues and plots.

For example, if the client threatens him, although he is a defense lawyer, it does not affect him to call the police, right? For example, with the evidence they found, if the relationship between the client and the defense attorney is terminated, especially after the client threatens him, do they wonder if the laws of the United States allow him to tell what he knows?

My feeling is that it is a very lax plot for the client to threaten him. As a lawyer, you should know that physical threats are a serious matter. If this plot was removed and the investigator was killed, then he would be more suspicious of his client as the only one in the know. I feel that it should be dealt with as his client has not made it clear to him, but the lawyer knows that the client knows they know a lot, and also secretly threatened his daughter. In this way, the investigator can also use a more vague method of death , it is difficult to determine that it is murder like this.

Also, to make the logic of dismantling the client a little more difficult, it can be made that he needs to continue to represent the criminal to get more evidence.

Criminals confess too quickly. Generally speaking, if lawyers know that you are guilty, they will use different methods to deal with defense methods. You can't expect the other side's prosecutors and police to find evidence all the time, right? This criminal should also know that his crime is not seamless, why the lawyer found it, but the detective who eats this bowl of rice can't. It's a bit illogical that the show makes the lawyer the only truth-taker. In addition, lawyers cannot instruct clients to lie. I think from a legal point of view, there are too many loopholes, and it is a failure to let lawyers know that they are murderers.

    A good movie I watched N times last year, although it is not a classic, but it is definitely worth recommending. This lawyer has everything a man should have, such as courage, wit, humor,, unlike the heroic feeling created by ordinary movies, he is let People feel very real man!

The Lincoln Lawyer quotes

  • Gloria: Yeah, housewife of the year, that's me.

  • [Mick, armed with a baseball bat, discovers Louis has broken into his house]

    Louis Roulet: [sitting casually in Mick's home office] If you're wondering how I got in, I'm in real estate, so if I want to get into a friend's house...

    Mick Haller: No, we're not friends. You're my client. And I'm your lawyer.

    Louis Roulet: My lawyer. See, that's exactly what I wanted to remind you of. I'm about to go on trial, and yet I couldn't reach you. Now I find out where you were all day. Heard you tell Maggie.

    Mick Haller: You shit.

    Louis Roulet: You went to see Jesus Martinez. And I know what you talked about: Donna Renteria. You're right, Mick. I killed her. There. No reason I shouldn't tell my own lawyer since it's all confidential. Attorney-client privilege. Isn't that what you told me?

    Mick Haller: It's time for you to go, Louis.

    Louis Roulet: Alright.

    [He sits up, finishes his drink, and stands up. He notices a framed picture of Mick & his daughter Hayley on Mick's desk]

    Louis Roulet: [walks out into the living room] That's a cute picture of your daughter Hayley. She's very pretty. She's got soccer practice tomorrow, right?

    Mick Haller: [following Louis] Don't.

    Louis Roulet: [pretending to be confused] Don't what?

    Mick Haller: [gets in Louis' face] You think you're the first client to threaten me and my family? Huh?

    Louis Roulet: All I said was she's pretty.

    Mick Haller: Are you scared, Louis? Because where you are right now, you're in a very dangerous place.

    [He opens the front door and Louis leaves]
